Use This Trick to End a Headache in Two Minutes

And without a single pill.

If you rarely experience headaches, we envy you. Those who do suffer from the pesky pain know how much non-headache life suddenly seems like heaven on earth once that pounding sensation takes over.

While raiding your medicine cabinet seems like the easiest solution, a clever mind trick is making rounds on the Internet, and people are claiming it works like a charm. YouTuber Kamil K. Wawrzyszko posted a video, which now has more than 800,000 views, explaining the simple remedy.

The key is to visualize your headache: Give it a color, size, shape and location. If you keep focusing on that, you'll picture the pain getting smaller until it goes away completely.

Several commenters have sung the trick's praises. "I still watch this whenever it is needed and I recommend it to all of my friends and literally anyone who has a headache," said YouTuber TheTdb20. Another user, CoolGuy, said, "I've been here a few weeks ago and again today, it somehow worked both times! Thanks, Kamil!"

Other viewers claimed the trick didn't get rid of their headache entirely, but it made it milder. "I've had a headache for over 24 hours. It's still not gone, but this did calm the pain a bit," said Jeff Cramm.
